Researchers agree that comprehenders regularly predict upcoming language, but they do
not always agree on what prediction is (and how to differentiate it from integration) or what …

Prediction is often regarded as an integral aspect of incremental language comprehension,
but little is known about the cognitive architectures and mechanisms that support it. We …

Why our use of language is highly creative yet also constrained We use words and phrases
creatively to express ourselves in ever-changing contexts, readily extending language …

Memory is fleeting. New material rapidly obliterates previous material. How, then, can the
brain deal successfully with the continual deluge of linguistic input? We argue that, to deal …

Currently, production and comprehension are regarded as quite distinct in accounts of
language processing. In rejecting this dichotomy, we instead assert that producing and …

A work that reveals the profound links between the evolution, acquisition, and processing of
language, and proposes a new integrative framework for the language sciences. Language …

The notion that prediction is a fundamental principle of human information processing has
been en vogue over recent years. The investigation of language processing may be …

Several mechanisms of predictive language processing have been proposed. The possible
influence of mediating factors such as working memory and processing speed, however, has …

Are there individual differences in children's prediction of upcoming linguistic input and what
do these differences reflect? Using a variant of the preferential looking paradigm (Golinkoff …

Some recent theoretical accounts in the cognitive sciences suggest that prediction is
necessary to understand language. Here we evaluate this proposal. We consider arguments …
